Good for you Cass...

I'll be following your ride keenly.  You've given me some inspiration here in planning for the next 5 years. I need to be doing that right now and today's as good a time as any to set some goals. Here's to your success.   Way To Go

Wildwoman - my thoughts exactly!

Hey you
Nothing ventured,nothing gained. Ask for more, more, more! The more you have, the more you have to spread around, right? It's simply a universal principle! Go for it!

katray - lol! Another pot for the collection. Empty, but useful...

tigerprincess - yes, more money would be good.

Frankenkitty - thank you. I will have to plant some seeds to make that money tree...

kelly - you could well become my inspiration! I have been op shopping at times, but haven't found any real bargains yet. I will have to keep looking.

sassy - a black Ferrari would be good too, but I've been told red goes faster!

Travels into the unknown can be thrilling...
Good insights Ca88andra. I hope your plans and dreams are fulfilled in that pot o' gold with your name on it. And if they're not, well you'll have the pot as a memento at least!

Sometimes all you need is more money. THere is nothing wrong with that.

and I hope you find a money tree.  You never know, it happens.  Take care

I TOO ... FOUND THE NEED TO SHOP FOR THAT RED FERRARI

I know exactly where you are coming from.  My 'five years' has now wittled down to 'three to go'.  So far have managed the school trips to Queensland, dinners, sports activities etc.  I can buy them new clothes as well.  I am able to do this because every item I wear is second hand.  Yes!! I go Op-Shopping for myself.  I have found some fabulous buys and feel that a lot of the time I look better dressed than others I am with.  I will confess, "I have become addicted to Op-Shopping."  I am up at 4.45AM every morning; and retire at about 10.00PM every night.  Have got use to it but keep telling myself, "only three years to go!!"  Those 'ankle-biters' are worth it though are they not?   Go search for that Ferrari, owning one makes life busy, chaotic, tiring and totally out of control at times.  However, it is fun and very satisfying.

You have the right attitude
I'll give you that. Money is not everything, but it sure does get you some pretty nice things. I also want a bigger income. This year has been a good year for me as far as making money from writing, but it could be better. I want a Ferrari also, but I'll take mine in black please.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Go for it, and understand that no dream or desire is impossible.

Ca88andra - I have always thought of you as a red Ferrari woman.

the book
Yesterday you commented on my blog and asked the name of the book I was referring to. I just left a comment there, but wanted to make sure you got the name of the book. "Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting" by Lynn Grabhorn. I just read your latest post and really think this could change your life. And no, I'm not a whack job cult-like psycho. Read it, it's simple physics. Would love to discuss it with you after.

I.R. - oh yes! I forgot about the scarf and sunglasses, but I will definitely get them.

BOOYAH ! Get your scarf, get your sunglasses, and grab your touring cap....
if you don't take that ride, someone else will steal that car.

Thanks May. Its the determination of people like you that encourages and motivates me.

Buckle up, and put the peddle down...
those risks will also be fun, and spice things up...peace...

I think this happens to people who have been married a while too. Every now and then they think back to their days in a Ferrari. The luckiest ones can go there with the old car parked in the garage.
I agree that you must take risks. I am taking a complete risk right now doing all sorts of things that I have never done before. The only challenge is that I am not very well. That of course in part could be a symptom of taking all those risks. Leave no stone unturned

littlems - about to switch cruise control off and go into overdrive...

Sounds like you have everything in control - cruise control perhaps??
Good luck and enjoy the wind in your hair.

posted by Tanoolicious on May 3, 2005 at 12:50 PM | link to this | reply

I agree....
...love and all the wonderful intangibles of life are great..maybe the best..but money is needed to make the road much smoother and it's naive to think you don't need it! I spent many 'hippy' mentality years thinking money was totally unnecessary...racked up a lot of debt that way. I'm sure you are level-headed enough to take safe risks....and I'd love to read about your adventures along the way..GOOD LUCK Cass! You can do it!

BUCKLE UP SISTER
It's gonna be a fun ride. I'll watch you here from the side lines and cheer you on.

Ca88 - my advice: spend it on yourself ...
I could give you tons of examples where parents try to give their kids the very best opportunties, and the kid doesn't appreciate the sacrifice and throws it away. Make the kid work for what he wants and buy yourself a fast car.

Good honesty
They say love of money is the root of all evil, but it can do a lot of good in the right hands.

Taking risks is something the only way to be successful. I don't know any successful people who have not taken some. When you get that "hot car", stop over and pick up us girls so we can be taken on one of your adventures...

If I say I love you . . .
Will you buy me a fast car too?
